Premier League Prediction Thread 2024/2025

[nelson4lov]

Is anyone still under-rating Westham, I mean they have gone crazy, if doubters think Newcastle was easy even after they came back from behind two times in the game before the concluded it, now Leicester is no easy team, I mean I thought Westham would win but 4:1 I never saw it coming, although I don't understand why the coach of Leicester is benching senior man Iheanacho, I think he should be a starter in the team, congratulations to big and strong Antonio, a brace in the match, I think he is my man of the match.

I can't say West ham was lucky because they were not. Aside from that Perez red card, West ham put out a very strong performance and deserved the winner. In recent years, West ham have become a team to reckon with in the Premier league given the fact that they're a tough team to beat. Not sure if putting in ihenacho would have made much difference for this Leicester city side. Their attacks were not too good to begin with.

Leicester got a red card in the first half and it made things much easier for West Ham. They were already 1-0 ahead and they didn't have much difficulty in opening the score gap. Tielemans scored the only goal of Leicester. And I must admit that Antonio was in really fine feather as he scored 2 goals and made an assist also. This could be one of the best starts to a season for him. West Ham controlled the game and won it easily.

[Slow death]

What do you think of the West Ham v Leicester match? The odds on one of the teams to win are about the same, and by the way are quite high - 2.5 or 2.9... I think the visitors could well beat the hosts, judging from the last games... Still, it's hard to make a prediction here... In the last match West Ham won, I think that today Leicester will want to get back into the game!

Leicester  1 - 4  West Ham

leicester failed in defense, that red card, the mistake of the defense that led to the second goal, the third goal also mistake the leicester defender and the fourth goal the same thing, I would say it was a very humiliating defeat, it seems to me that this season leicester will not be on top as it has been in recent times, the level of competition is stronger every season

That huge goals difference is unexpected but seeing Leicester losing shouldn't be imo. Considering the previous season and the last round, West Ham players show that they shouldn't be underestimated. Round 2 finished and WHU is sitting in the first place with 8 goals scored, their next game is vs Crystal Palace and shouldn't be harder tho.

The amount of funds spent this season does not seem to be able to lift the achievements of arsenal, and it is time for the club management to rethink whether to keep Arteta or not, because to be honest the arsenal game in the last two matches has not seen any improvement at all, although it is too early to make two defeats as a result the reason for Arteta dismissal, but of course Arsenal management doesn't have to wait for a few more defeats to happen in order to fire Arteta, because if Arsenal  management continues to wait of course Arsenal will be in a pretty bad situation like last season.

Dude has been the manager of Arsenal for 88+ games now, nearly 90, not like this was the two games that he played. Dude is not a good manager Arsenal just have to accept that by now, I mean he is not doing anything exceptional with the team. I get that he can keep this team midtable and team is not making huge splash transfers neither so they do not really have anything to go from as well I am not blaming only Arteta, but he is also not a good manager neither, I wouldn't say he is a terrible one neither but he is not a good one neither.
I would say that the best case for him would be to end up with a lower level team to prove that he could go back to bigger names later on. Arsenal should spend some cash on getting some big name, and since they are already too late I do not think that they would be able to at this point, it would be quite hard, wish they got Mourinho before Roma did.

The Telegraph reports that Arteta held a meeting with the club's management, where he was given five matches to correct the situation with the team's results. This is the last chance for Arteta from the team management, after which he will be dismissed. By the way, the defeat against Arsenal was the 20th under the leadership of Arteta and it took 60 matches to get such a result. For example, for Arsene Wenger, who previously led Arsenal, it took 116 matches for 20 losses. However, there are some problems with the squad, because any coach will not be completely happy when you have COVER-19 Willian, Lacazette, Aubameyang, as well as Nketiah, Partey, Gabriel are injured.

[Tessnik]

I think Manchester City can aim for the final victory this year and make up for the disappointments they had last year

Am afraid Manchester united will have to wait for the next tournament before they can recover fully from their previous disappointment Liverpool seems to have the upper hand in this year's premier league.

^^ Interesting. Popular football transfer news reporter yesterday reported that Mikel Arteta has full confidence of Arsenal board. I also think it is a bit hard to swallow but come again to think about it well would they allow so much transfers breaking the 100m mark in transfers if they didn't had confidence? We all know how Arsenal are in transfers but this transfer window they have been much active. I think Arteta still got chances left to prove himself.

About the last match, Ben White was unable to play as he was COVID+ so now can understand why he was unavailable for London Derby. So I can see why Arteta had to work out with Mari.

Five matches are long and if Arteta has 3 more defeats in next 3 matches, I think he will be sacked sooner than the plan. I don't wish any bad thing for him but it is how football is nowadays. Clubs and owners don't give coaches too much patience to improve situation. They can say they are in with coach, believe in coach but after a few bad results, decisions can suddenly be made, behind the scene.

Before any sack, we always see director boards announce that they fully believe in and will support coach at any coach. At the end, under pressure of fan, financial issues, they have to sack their coach and put their hope on a new one.

Roman Abramovich does it many time. He put belief in Lampard but finally Frankie was sacked and Tuchel came, brought the Champions League title to the club's hall of fame and help Chelsea to end in top four of Premier League.

About Arteta, I think he was given many time in Arsenal.

[Lordhermes]

Ateta has not really performed well as a coach,I think he is inexperienced enough to coach a big team like Arsenal.Arsenal needs a coach like Antone Conte who I think will take the club to another level,make use of those young players and get the best out of them.As it standsthe players will deliberately  loose matches to get Arteta sacked from Arsenal before they can do well on the pitch.

And some senior players have shown their feeling to the club  that they are no longer happy staying at the club,Bellerin for example.I wonder what Arsenal we look like if they decide not to sign  another player,and feel they've concluded their activities in this season's current transfer window.

Leicester lost 4-1 to West Ham. West Ham's striker is in good form this season. They have scored 8 goals in 2 matches. Leicester could not return to the track after Ayoze Perez received a red card. They also failed to attack well. The entire match was dominated by West Ham.

David Moyes is a very good manager, he is really going a good job with West Ham with emphatic win over Leicester, they started this season on a good note I hope the team sustain the tempo and consistent in winning their subsequent matches, It was quite unfortunate that Moye wasn't given enough time when he was appointed by Man Utd, he would have performed better than Ole, despite the limited budget at his present club, they are getting positive results, just like last season not until towards the end of the season before the club lost form, congratulations to Michail Antonio who became West Ham top scorer in the Premier League after breaking the club record of Paolo di Canio.

It's a shock because I don't expect a big loss for Leicester City after their great performance in the past 2 seasons. West Ham are not weak but still it is a big win for them, and a big shock for Leicester City.

David Moyes has many seasons in Everton and he builds up his reputation in Everton. However, the movement to Manchester United even has a support from Sir Alex, is a big failure for David Moyes.

I think he is able to manage medium clubs well. In big clubs, Moyes is not able to deal with pressure and results can be affected very badly. It is his side but his failure in Manchester United has contributions from the club board. They are impatient and after the retirement of Sir. Alex, they were fearful of defeat. They don't know that to build up a new era, it takes lot of time. Moyes needs time but they did not give him

[blue Snow]

I see this is a tight and interesting match, One person that I can see who playing best for MU is Pogba, He was found his best performance, he is just not lucky when conversating his goal chance. but overall his assist makes it a draw, Greenwood was competent, but Southampton did play really well, if the defender is loose possible MU get the big win.

@blue Snow if you’ll remember I had said that Manutd cannot be title challengers till they play with Matic, Fred, Mctominay and yet Ole decides to stick by them. Furthermore Van de beek, Varane ans Sancho are getting wasted on the bench, and I’ll be totally disappointed if those 3 are not in the starting lineup in their next fixture.

Agree with you, because that Ole going to be a trending topic (#OleOut) when tie, he uses an old scheme, MU brought many player like you said but never going to be a starter yet, Sancho only as a substitute in injured time, he can't improve his skill. at the moment, I see MU has the best anchor (Pogba, Fernandes, and Sancho) when play it at the beginning and good defence when Varane is in the back.

Westham started the good in a good shape, there front four were so attacking and always connecting, playing for each other and not being selfish. West Ham has scored 8 goals in two games now, Unarguably they are the reigning fire house of this EPL season. I hope they maintain this momentum till the end. Great management from moyes and great play from the players, especially how he transformed Antonio from the right back position to a prolific goal scoring striker. I am really happy to see Moyes doing well especially after all the unfair gestures he got at Manchester United. I know that westham is gonna enjoy much stability under him just like everton did during his tenure there .

West ham were in good position to win the game with or without the Ayoze's red card, they were all over the game, they fold Leicester City tactically and got a lot of possession, Leicester needs to work on their attacks I was surprise to see Kelechi not in the starting line-up. A night to remember for Antonnio.

Well we all knew Arteta was not Wenger,,, and everybody at Arsenal also knew that. I just cannot understand why they hired him and made it permanent when they had to realize this results was coming.

No leader. No good coach. Not their fault. Old and expensive buys that keep not playing.

See and now people who forced Wenger away wish they had him back.

I've heard about a probability that Antonio Conte would replace Mikel Arteta. Considering the last season, Conte would be a good choice for the team. However, they can't solve all of their problems by just bringing Conte. The team need better players. So they should make much better transfers. Actually, there is still time for that. But I don't think that they will do so in this transfer window.

I believe any manager can lead any side to victory. It’s doesn’t really depend on the size of the club or its hierarchy. A high profile coach can still flop in a big club and a low profile manager can still do well in a big club. It’s just depend on the support system and the management. Unarguably Moyes did really good at Everton. The Ross Barkley, Marouane Fellani, Landon Donovan, Leighton Baines, Mikel Arteta, Steven Naismith, Steven pienar, Tim Howard, Tim Cahill were all Moyes rated signings. Unarguably Moyes is a better manager than Ole Gunnar, but because Ole is a club legend, he’s got that immunity to stay and being given much time to prove something.

Yeah, popular transfer news websites don't actually mean they're accurate. In fact, I'd say the most popular football transfer news reporters are working for terrible companies like the Sun, Daily Mail, and TalkSport. They aren't accurate at all, and the reason they're popular is because they get people talking about big transfers.

I personally recommend looking for journalists which are close to the club. For example, for Liverpool we have James Pearce, and Melissa Reddy who are exceptional sources for transfer news, because they're practically mouth pieces of the club. They are also decent for Everton I believe. They don't usually speculate too often, and when they do they make it clear that it is their opinion, rather than basing it on recent developments inside or outside the club.

Yeah I agree with you totally. Those news sites just sell false rumours in order to get some views. I follow only Fabrizio Romano and ever since I have followed I have never heard of any false rumours. All the rumours were true and went through. And it came from that source. Would love to see a list of such reporters tied up with the club.

Regarding Arteta , I know everyone are skeptical given the situation of the club and why won't they be, there haven't been any change in ranks or finishes ever since he came but reports are that club are having faith in him. You know it will run down after couple of flop shows but well let's see.
